about

My first murder ballad...or maybe it's a song for a viking funeral...or maybe it's just an ode to the late, great, G.O.T.

lyrics

There goes my Evalene
Windswept and golden
Floats past the evergreens
That our barren seeds were sowed in
There goes my silver girl
Secrets still sleeping
In a soft shell that fate decreed
Held a heart not worth beating

There goes my Evalene
Fire on the water
Sights she'd have loved to see
Stark, silent daughter
There goes my winter child
So seldom scolded
Flames dancing free and wild
And her hands, gently folded

There goes my Evalene
Star-crossed and stolen
Whitewash the canvas clean
When the last bell stops tolling
There go so many days
Burnt up unseen
Smoke rising off the bay
Is the last of my Evalene
Of my sweet, sweet Evalene
